Opinion polls consistently rate asylum and immigration as one of voters’ main concerns, and right-wing parties of varying degrees of extremism have been profiting by playing up the threat to the British way of life posed by a flood of unwashed foreignersSo a report published this week by the UNHCR will make welcome reading for the government. It shows asylum applications to industrialized countries falling sharply, continuing the downward trend of the past three years. But one statistic will be of special significance: while Britain was the most popular rich-country destination in 2003, it has now fallen into second place behind France。
So what’s behind the drop in applications? One reason is simply that there are fewer asylum-seekers. The UNHCR reckons that, in the first half of 2004, the number of people seeking sanctuary in rich countries fell by 22% compared with the same period last year. Part of the drop is due to the removal of unpopular governments; IraA:Downing Street No.10 will benefit from_____B:[A] a recently released accountC:[B] a consistent opinion pollD:[C] the right-wing partiesE:[D] a flood of unwashed foreigners6.Hannah Ward’s remarks are quoted to____A:[A] clarify the welcome reading by UNHCRB:[B] emphasize the awareness of public anxietyC:[C] indicate the cause of application diveD:[D] categorize the stowaways and cargo shipments7.The term “work” in Line 2, paragraph 6 denotes____A:[A] functionB:[B] improvementC:[C] publicityD:[D] visibility8.It can be inferred from the text that voters simply care____A:[A] a hot topicB:[B] varying degrees of extremismC:[C] the number of immigrantsD:[D] a flood of high-tech scanning machines9.Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A:[A] Asylum applications.B:[B] A worldwide decline。

(40 points)Text 1For every Chad Hurley or Mark Zuckerberg there are many Sathvik Krishnamurthys. The first two are the young entrepreneurs behind YouTube and Facebook, respectively, who are striking it rich in Silicon Valley’s current Web boom. Mr. Hurley last year sold video site YouTube to Google for more than $1.7 billion just 19 months after the company’s founding, netting him a personal fortune valued at more than $340 million. Mr. Zuckerberg has built social-networking site Facebook into a start-up valued at $15 billion in less than four years。
Then there is Mr. Krishnamurthy. Plenty of wannabe Silicon Valley entrepreneurs expect to land on a spectacular path to success, but most end up with stories akin to his.

One longstanding reason why boys have been seen as a greater blessing has been that they are expected to become better economic providers for their parents’ old age. Yet it is time for parents to think again. Girls may now be a better investment。
Girls get better grades at school than boys, and in most developed countries more women than men go to university. Women will thus be better equipped for the new jobs of the 21st century, in which brains count a lot more than brawn. In Britain far more women than men are now training to become doctors. And women are more likely to provide sound advice on investing their parents’ nest egg: surveys show that women consistently achieve higher financial returns than men doFurthermore, the increase in female employment in the rich world has been the main driving force of growth in the past couple of decades.
